Debian KVM stops unmotivated

[solved] Debian KVM stops unmotivated in ProxmoxVE 1.2

Hi,

after upgrading to proxmox 1.2 one of my debian lenny KVMs (squeeze from netinstall iso) stops unmotivated. This means I start the KVM and work on it using ssh shell and vnc shell and suddenly, without warning, the vm stops. Neither in the guest nor in the host logs I find any hint why.

Can anybody help, please?

kind regards

Is it repeatable/reproducible?

 

[CyberCSK]

yes, today this happedend about 4 times! But the periodes are different. from 5min to 1hour uptime.

Does it really stop? Or do you your loose the VNC connection?

 

[CyberCSK]

The web interface shows the status "stopped" and all connections are interrupted without warning.

Is there a log file which records these start/stop/supend actions for the VMs?

 

[dietmar]

There is the syslog (/var/log/syslog).

Maybe you can test kvm-86:

ftp://pve.proxmox.com/debian/dists/lenny/pvetest/binary-amd64/pve-kvm_86-1_amd64.deb

but be prepared to switch back.

ok, thanks, this seems to solve the problem. I installed your kvm-86 update and I had no stops for the last two hours now. Let's see if it remains stable.

OK, the systems are up for one day now. The problem is solved, I think.
I suggest to release proxmox 1.2.1 with kvm-86, since, in my opinion, this is a serious bug.
